Bersa Thunder .380, 2 mags, brand new in box, $275 out the door. Yes or no.
YES!
Well, I would.
That is all ....
Decent pistol. Decent price. A little big for a .380. Is there a reason that you want .380? You can get a 9 mm or .40 SW about the same size.
I would.
Very nice gun but .380 is hard to get and expensive right now.

The one I had was about as good as it gets.
Like yours it was amazingly accurate.
You mean you HAVEN’T YET?!!?!?!?
Run! Jog! Jus’ git yo’ tail-six over d’ere NOW!!
the bersa is the next-gen-style PPK!!
For just a few bucks more you can get a CZ82 in 9mm Makarov. But if you like the Bersa buy it.
I’m not familiar with Bersa but my carry piece is an S&W .380 bodyguard. If I had it to do over I’d opt for a weaker trigger pull. The difference between the cheaper gun and the top brands is a shorter, lighter trigger. Dry fire it and decide if you’d be able to hit a target up to 30 feet away. It took me lots of practice to do that with the (est) 6 lb pull of the S&W.
If you carry it I’d recommend Glasser ammo, which will not ricochet and has a higher knockdown over the standard FMJ.
For me, at 110 lbs, open carry is the only solution for anything bigger than a .22 jennings in the summer. I've got special needs and I'm not jumping through all those hoops again every time I meet someone that is 'sure' they have a better solution. ;)
But that's just me.

Sounds good to me.
Yep.
My brother has one. Nice carry gun, well made. I’ve put a few boxes through it. Good price.
I have one, the 15 round plus, very accurate, easy to clean. That’s a good price.
(Then let me know how I can get the deal.)
I bought a .380 Bodyguard for my daughter.
Light weight, laser, easy to conceal, etc.
I hate that damned gun and so does my daughter.
It has a 475 pound trigger pull, or at least it seems so.
I've since compared the Bersa and in terms of handling, accuracy, trigger pull, the Bersa is way ahead.
I just wish the Bersa had a similar laser.
Haven't decided yet, plus I looked a 9MM Bersa the other day and the guy offered me $300.00 trade on the Bodyguard.
Still deciding.
Good choice for CC. I am thinking of getting one myself.
I noticed that you could buy parts....
for the Bersa...
